In this video, we go check out a shed at Sams and do an entire build on it. I hope this video helps you out if you decide to purchase this.
This is a great video showing each step of assembly. You explain things very well and capture the essential points of assembly. I am nearly done assembling mine, but am awaiting shipment of the two missing hinge poles for the doors. Thanks for making this video and your shed foundation video.
Thank you. I’m glad it helped out.
I wish you had recorded the building of the floor. Nice video. I will look at it as I put my shed together. Excellent information.
I have the video of the floor on my channel. Skim through it and you will see it
Glad you liked it and consider subscribing
I love the little squares you placed at the beginning so the floor wouldn’t move. Mine moved so much when installing the walls
Yea there is spots where you can install lag bolts on the floor. I saw them at a later time lol
Thank you for this / we left ours sitting box too long and now the instructions are toast!!!😂😂
I got you start to finish. Consider subscribing
I bought the same exact shed at Sam’s for 699. This video will be helpful when I start assembling it. I’m also going to build my foundation just like yours too. Looks to be very sturdy. Thanks for sharing!
Yes it is. It doesn’t give at all when you walk on it
Where did you find it for $699? Just curious because now its $899 at sams and i really want one
@@dianaherrera4305 it was on sale back in May/June at Sam’s Club in Delaware.
Just purchased one for $880 out the door building it looks a blast.
Thanks! We saw this in store yesterday and should have bought one..all sold out 100 miles from us now
Yea it seems like a good shed so far
Nice! I bought one last week and put it up. It's $850 now here in the Charlotte NC area. Took a few hours, especially if I include leveling the area and building the wood foundation.
Not bad at all
How is it holding up. Planned on getting one from the university Sam’s
@sketchydread it’s not bad. Still the same as I set it up
@sketchydread very well. It's just like when I put it up. Definitely solid.
Thanks for the video.... I have one to build this weekend but I don't think I'm going to hand screw it all like you did! I'll set the hammer drill to a real light level.
Yea you can do that I just didn’t want to take a chance. Plus I did mine over a few days
Hammer drill, you should work with the handscrew guy. Your hammer drill probably has drill, screw, and hammer drill feature.
I just like to use a screw driver for plastic stuff. Always. I don’t care if it’s 700 screws to fill.
Best installation video sonfar👍
Thank you !
Just purchased one, in Hagerstown,Md.on sale 699.00,
I'll be putting it up this weekend if it doesn't rain, thank you for the helpful video
You’ll love it. Make sure you bring home two boxes. It has two long boxes
Same here, purchased in Illinois $699..Good luck!
Thank you for the excellent video. Will be a big help when I’m putting mine together
Yea man step by step. Glad you liked it Ryan
Thanks for this!! Have the same model but 8x10. The parts look the same so this is a huge help!
Yes it’s a cool little project. I think I worked on this about 30-45 minutes a day for about 4 days and got it done
Dang, I can see why they charge $400 for installation now. You could build a legit shed in the same amount of time out of sturdier materials. It's nice that it's mold proof though if you live somewhere with humidity. Good vid. Hope it's working out for ya.
It’s going strong!
Nice video, I just saw the shed at my local Sam’s Club today, really thinking about going through with buying it because it’s $100 less than at my local Lowe’s and it’s the same shed essentially
It’s a great shed and has held up well
The videos for the shed foundation is on my channel as well. Consider subscribing
@@MendandMake good info pal, thanks,
Super-fantastic video, thank you. Question I've not read the entire instructions yet, I just picked mine up today. Is there instruction for a cement or paver foundation?
Thank you! I have a foundation I made with 2x6s for it on my channel
I see this ... after I got it put together . ... I guess we both decided a wood clamp was needed there... and then I used it several times afterwards. I put it up by myself, but it sure would have been easier with 2 or 3 people.
Wood clamps save us every time
Thanks for sharing. I’m thinking about buying one. Any roof leaks?
No leaks yet. 2 years strong so far
Only took you 3.5-4 hours to build, nice! I’ve done these many times and they take me about an hour and a half so good job!
If you can do that in 1-1/2 hrs you need to change your watch!
@@cayrick or the fact that I did 3 builds a day for over 2.5 years so yeah I have everything memorized and can do it fairly quickly 😂
Thank you, 🙏
Glad you like it
Assembling this in the hot Texas weather, it Took me like 8 hrs doing it myself divided in 3 days
Damn man. That’s pretty good a stretched it out a little bit but did it in better whether If you like this video give me a subscribe lol there is plenty more on my page money saving fixes glad you like it holler anytime
Great video! How long was the install? I assume it took a lil longer since you were recording.
20 minutes a day for about 2 weeks. I’d say 4 hours
Maybe 2.5 if your not recording
Remind me to ask what do you use for a foundation mine gets wet inside
I just brought one. Will be building it next week
Nice! Perfect weather to set it up let me know how it goes
Almost $1100 here in Hawaii. Must be nice to save so much money on EVERYTHING in the mainland.
Yea it’s not fair to have it like that but I guess it’s a supply and demand thing.
It must be nice for the shed to have ocean view with blue water😅 everyday!! Just Kidding
@alexchandra7880 I like it that way for the stuff I’m doing
Yea but you run the risk of a mass shooter trying to get it home.
Now on sale in May for $699. in Georgia. Great video.
That’s not bad
Just bought one and will be installing this, this memorial weekend. I’ll be putting this on top of a gravel base. What do you recommend for legging it down? Any suggestions. Thanks and awesome video.
Honesty if it’s gravel just put a weight in each corner like a 12 by 12 inch paver block. You should be good. Plus your going to have all your stuff in it as well.

Thank you.
@@mikexiong87 your welcome
Great video!
Thanks 😊
Nice work. Thank you for the video, learned a lot. Looking forward to putting mine together.
If you need help watch my video 1,000,000 times start to finish 👍
How did your shed do in the Texas summer? Any warping?
Nothing yet. We almost melted though :/
Is it water proof when it rains
Yes
@@MendandMake if I may ask what did you use a foundation mine gets wet inside
@Onecooliceman I have the video of the foundation. It’s 2x6s treated. It’s a raised platform and has a step
@@MendandMake k I will look for it tyvm, I’m so dissertation in my work I will have to take it all off and redo it all over again, ty again
Can it be built then moved to the final location? I have a very tight spot I want it in.
It should be built on location
I need to assemble one for my sister in law, I'm really not on the mood LOL
It’s not that bad lol just do a little each day or every other day and it’s fun.
Do you think you could store a john deer riding mower in it? Worried about it being too small
It will fit
Look at the very end of the video. I put a standard lawn mower in there so give you reference.
Haven’t gone through all the comments but pretty sure you left one side of the removable film on that window “glass”.
Lol. I took it off
Can this one be bolted to a cement slab?
Yes
Anyone know how much installation would cost?
I believe sams was charging like $350.00 for installation
Nice! I saw this in store yesterday and was interested.. do u need to build a wood base? Was thinking of something easier like gravel.. (I think I would need a permit if I build a wood base or concrete slab)
Gravel is fine just get it level
I used gravel 3.5” thick with 4x4 pressure treated wood and 10” hand tamper, if i need to redo, i would rent plate compactor to make it super compact (now the gravel still moves when i walk inside shed) or use road base and easier to level and compacted (also cheaper) but road base will not allow water to drain
Will the boxes fit in a 4 runner or I need a bigger truck?
Nope you need at least a 6 ft bed plus need to drop the tail gate to get a couple more ft
@MendandMake thanks for the reply. But I already got it today. Had to tie it and leave the back open halfway.
@@gagiktagaryan10 I'm thinking of doing the same since I'm not far from the store. Were they able to help you lift it into the truck?
@limbanipablo8362 they help load it
Are these water proof. I want to make an office in my back yard and it looks like it would be great for that.
Seems to hold up well. No leaks so far
@@MendandMake thanks for letting ne kniw as I wNt ny pc there going ti run solar piwdr on it as well. H9ma do some custom work to it just wanted to make sure leaks don't happen I can always fix that but I would rather it's leak proof.
Some people deck them out with insulation and make it a gaming room
@@MendandMake will give it a go thanks again.
Whats the size of the two boxes?
7 ft or so. You need a truck for it or small trailer for sure. Heavy
What is that wood platform called? Is that something you made for this shed or buy it pre built?
Yes I made it separately. There’s a video on how to build it on my channel. Check it out
Can’t imagine putting all those screws by hand
I used an impact driver wich made it super fast and easy
The foundation has to be level that way the doors wont require any adjusting
i did it by hand so i did not strip the screws in the plastic
How big are the 2 boxes that the shed came in and are they heavy to fit in SUV
You need a truck for sure and they are really heavy Jack
Just got this shed. How big did you make the base for shed? Great video!
Thanks. I just did an 8 x8 frame. The video on the foundation that I did is on my page as well. I used 2x6x8 I believe. Hope this helps
Just seen the video on foundation. Thanks.
The base. How do I get one of those if I cannot build one myself?
So many option with that leveling out a truckload of just base( small rock) will do the trick. I just made this foundation because I just wanted it really solid because I weigh a lot.
I have the video on how to make the foundation on my channels if you wanna see how it comes together. I believe anyone can make it. Please consider subscribing if you want to see more fix and build videos. It could safe you a lot of money. Thanks again for watching and I hope this video helped you out
So did anyone else have a bunch of those ADZ screws left?
Yes you will.
Do u have any video on how to build the base foundation for the shed?
Yes it’s on my channel. Subscribe and you’ll have it. Thanks
Hey I'm guessing roughly 4 hours for assembly? I was thinking of paying sams to install but watching this made me say mehhh I can knock this out lol. Great video
Yea man for sure. I probably did 20 minutes a day for a couple weeks and got it together. Just doing like a little before my kids would get home then hit it again the next day. Easy to assemble
@@MendandMake thanks hopefully I can order it. Sams is saying out of stock. Might have to go with Rubbermaid brand and home depot.
Wife and I assembled ours yesterday. Bought 36 16x16 concrete pavers for base. Half the price of (GOLD) I mean wood. Took us approx 6.5 hours with breaks of course. Had same problem with door needed to be shimmed. Looks good and enjoyed the video.
@@bradleywilliams2235 thanks where did you buy it from? Sams is out of stocks
@@DevD750 We purchased ours at a Sams club about a month ago and have just been waiting for the weather to warm up some. I actually saw someone the other day at Sams buying the display model.
I got mine for $699 here in SC
Yea it is about that price here now
Could I possibly have a bad one cause my corner is not snapping in n.?.Help
If you have 3 corners snapped in place, it says you will need another set of hands to get the fourth corner in place. There is a little shifting with it but it will work.
You forgot to take the plastic off the back of your windows. They should be clear!!!
Watch it until the end:)
Maybe slow down the video at the trouble spots?
How long it take you to assemble?
Honestly,20-25 minutes a day when I would get off work. I did 20-25 minutes per day Monday through Friday for 2 weeks. So 3.5 to 4 hours.
How long took to build
I worked on it for 20 minutes a day for 2 weeks
You sure can't get that in California for $799
If you did I’m sure you would have a separate property tax on it in Cali lol
Nope not in Cali. Its 850. Still not bad though.
Yea it went up to 850 at the sams here in San Antonio. I bought it a few years ago. It’s a nice storage though
@@MendandMake Thanks for the update on the integrity of the shed . I was pondering on purchasing it, you have solidified my decision. Ty
@@roderickarina for some reason someone said the instructions were awful. I didn’t think so. Super easy to build. Of just watch my video. I didn’t deviate from the instructions
Did you have leftover hardware when finished?
They give you a few extras
Just got one now it's 899.00 smh
But you got it. Mines still holding up strong
How heavy is this shed?
Roughly 200 lbs. on the platform I build for it you should be able to shift it around a little on your own
That shed is really heavy. Make sure you eat your wheaties.
@@zachary4225 lol...we did. We took the roof off first ...four guy lifted it over the fence....then lifted the rest over. Still can't believe we did it.
Got 2
$699.00
Dude use an electric screwdriver
Electric screwdriver can strip the plastics threads
It's was hard with assembly that 😕 Idk why.... 🤣 most bad instructions and quality 😒
I didn’t have problems with the instructions. I’m not sure why it’s a problem. I thought it was straight forward
@@MendandMake new instructions . All the bolts are the same, but they are marked in a completely unclear way. I mixed everything up, and now there is one less problem. Also, the unglys did not match at all.
@@dorogakuznetsova8585 each bag has all the hardware for each section
Using a screwdriver... interesting.........
Yea I didn’t wanna risk stripping the plastic
These sheds are junk don't waste your money. The doors never shut properly. Wind can probably blow this down. I had mine less than three years and roof caved completely in during normal winter... not sturdy at all...
It’s been ok so far 1 year in. We will see what 3 yes looks like. I needed a small storage for about 2 years and didn’t wanna drive 2 miles to the nearest storage unit.
@@MendandMake hopefully you don't have issues. I just live in mountains where it shows a lot and high winds...
Damn. Yea might be some harsh weather for that storage.
@@MendandMake yes I live in area wish harsh weather in the mountains. If you live in moderate climate where not much wind or snow then it's probably fine...
@@thadlogan51 San Antonio not too bad on the weather here
Don't buy this piece of garbage !!!
I am a master mechanic for 40 years. I never seen anything constructed this poor had such vague and stupid instructions manual. I don't think it will last half of it's 10 years warranty.... I made this mistake... you shouldn't.
I’m not a master mechanic and did not have any trouble with the directions… sorry it was a pain for you
Couldn't be further from the truth. Do Not regret mine at all.
This guy probably builds those custom sheds and he is mad that this thing is better priced and will last twice as long. Master mechanic 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
@EDCMancave I don’t know much about being a mechanic but I didn’t have a problem getting it together… but it’s not a car so there’s that
Old and senile boomer. This shed is perfectly fine.
